Professors Gef
Three Science
Grants In-Aid
Three grants in aid totaling
$26,400 have been awarded to Uni
versity chemistry and physics de
partment professors so that they
can further projects on which they
are working.
The office of naval research has
given a $20,000 grant to Dr. Pierre
Van Rysselbergh, professor of
chemistry. The grant represents an
18-month continuation of a pre
vious award for research on some
of the fundamental physical and
chemical aspects of the corrosion
phenomena. Work thus far on the
project has been a study by elec
tro-chemical methods of the con
sumption of oxygen and carbon
dioxide by metallic surfaces.
Dr. Hans Heymann, assistant
professor of chemistry, has re
ceived a $2400 Frederick Gardner
Cottrell special grant in-aid. The
project is the study of a compound
with structures similar to that of
other compounds with carcinogen
etic (cancer producing) qualities.
In order to do research in the
ultra-violet spectra of metals, Dr.
Frederick W. Paul, associate pro
fessor of physics, has been awarded
a $4000 grant. Dr. Paul said that in
studying the problem of how met
als are put together the research
will be in the ultra-violet spectra
of high stages of ionization; ab
sorption spectra solid materials;
and absorption of metallic vapors.
Materials to be studied will include
the alkaline halides and alkaline
earth halides.
Dr. Paul did similar work with
the institute of optics at the Uni
versity of Rochester, New York. He
received a grant last year for work
in the field at that time, •bring
this period, he also built a specto
graph. This equipment or similar
apparatus will be used in connec
tion with his University of Oregon
research. Also necessary in the re
search will be vacuum pumps, high
voltage equipment, and other sci
entific equipment.
